Start with the given inequality


Break up the absolute value (remember, if you have , then or )

or Break up the absolute value inequality using the given rule




Now lets focus on the first inequality


Start with the given inequality


Subtract 1 from both sides


Combine like terms on the right side


Divide both sides by 2 to isolate x



Divide


Now lets focus on the second inequality


Start with the given inequality


Subtract 1 from both sides


Combine like terms on the right side


Divide both sides by 2 to isolate x



Divide

Answer:

So our answer is

or



So the solution in interval notation is: (] [)




Here's the graph of the solution set




Note:
There is a closed circle at which means that we're including that value from the solution set.


Also, there is a closed circle at which means that we're including that value from the solution set.
